Where is the best place to find 35mm film and to get it developed? [View all]

I just inherited two Canon A-1 bodies and a set of various lenses for them. They have been barely used - my Dad bought them but never got into using them much. They have been stored in a hard case that was well sealed and are like new.

I'm not sure if I will use them - I've gotten too spoiled with my Nikon D750 I just bought and love the immediacy of the digital cameras. But it would nice to try these old Canons out.
